Would shadows be contributing 90% of 3D pop as 'pop' seems to be about contrast?
With that in mind, shots on a sunny day around water or snow would be flat due to all the reflections.
Oh
Very unclean editing - look the strange "shadows" around the woman!
What do you think the shadows were added?
No, dude. Don't you see that by lifting shadows / lowering highlights or by applying a local filter in Lightroom / Camera RAW there is this strange darker "halo" around the woman? That's always something to watch out for, and you didn't.

And on the whole the image has no subject and looks messy and "unkempt".
I can imagine that it looked really interesting when you were there - but one always has to be careful whether it's possible to translate that to a working image.
I know that very well - I can't count anymore how often I thought "awww, that looks really nice", only to see at home on the monitor that the image doesn't work at all and is just messy or unbalanced or just plain conveys nothing.

Hello again, I have done some research on the net regarding that "lossless RAW processing" thing.
The image (and many of Mark's other images) is really great. There is no doubt.
His theories regarding optimal processing are very much to be doubted, though.
One question only: If his allegedly new or optimal way of processing a RAW file is so good and if it is "lossless" as opposed to all the other "lossy" ways - why is he apparently the ONLY one who has discovered this, and NO ONE else talks or writes about it?
I find that fishy, sorry.
Oh "halo" now. You previously said shadows. Words are hard I guess. Well I like how the image looks. Sorry I'm not as perfect as you and you see the faults. I've noticed lately you don't have many nice things to say. It must be exhausting to wake up and fault everyone you come across. Maybe it's just you or your culture. No wonder others and myself post less and less here. You won't mind if I block you dude okay?
